MTS Future First Community Grants

MTS is very pleased to invite youth-serving organizations in Manitoba to apply for one of ten MTS Future First community grants. These grants form part of MTS’s new community investment program – Future First: Connecting Today’s Youth to Tomorrow. The objective of our program is to support organizations like yours working to remove barriers to success and help our young people achieve their full potential.

For the inaugural year of the Future First Community grants, MTS will present a total of ten $10,000 grants to organizations focused on bettering the lives of Manitoba’s young people.

To be considered for a Future First community grant, interested organizations are invited to submit an application form that clearly identifies how the program or project achieves at least one of the following results for Manitoba youth under age 24: Enhance knowledge, skills and/or leadership capabilities Develop/acquire skills to make healthy and positive life choices
